Exciting announcement claxon!
We’re beyond excited to reveal that the next OGOM conference will be a collaboration with the Haunted Shores network called ‘Bodies of Water: Mermaids, Selkies, and other Marine and Freshwater Hybrids’. We are keen to explore the connection between mermaids and the Gothic; the overriding theme will be one of enchantment. The CFP will be posted over the summer and the conference will be held in the Spring of 2025. Like the mermaid, it will be hybrid in form. The event will include mermaid themed entertainments and a seaside trip. More will be announced soon.
